sure had nothing to do but have great deal OF
work done by hand, at much expense, which
should have been done by machinery at very
little expense. Mr.. Colman also gave the Pussy

the company gave no guaranty or what the

ports that they worked beautifully, with
the trifinc exception that the plates

The Parkinson Sugar Company did not furnish
a suitable room for specialization; the iempera-
ture was too low. In the experiments 2.322 tons
OF sliced sorghum cane were used, and about
twenty five tons of sugar were made. The sugar
was of fair quality and salable; the molasses was
dark and poor. The results did not satisfy Prof.
Wiley. and be attributes them to several things
One little obstacle that the sugar he tried to
get out OF the cane wasn't there. He says:
The sorghum canes entering the battery at
Fort Scott were totally unfit for sugar making.
NO known process. save an act or creation,
could have made sugar successfully out OF such
material" Further on he remarks after all
these years of effort to devise processes. that

Finally, the discouraged Professor is moved to
admit "In a general review Of the work. the
most important point suggested is tho absolute

commercial practicahity of manufacturing
sorghum sugar. Since the present appropria-
ton was made for continuing and concluding

a Colorado Sheep Ranch.

All sheep-breeders are painfully aware
Of the heavy percentage of loss sustained
during the lanbing season, especially
among the higher grades of sheep. A large
proportion of this loss is caused by the
weakness and stupidity of the newly-born
lamb. A eve will often walk OFF while
feeding, leaving her lamb lying in the sun,
where it dies o. exhaustion This occur
red so often that Mr. Weare tried an expe-
rinent this season which has proved en-
inentIy successful. He erected series of
pens under shelter, fitting them up with
troughs for fresh water and soft feed, such
as bran and meal. In the first pen he put
all the ewes who had dropped lambs du-
ring the preceding tWenty-four hours, to-
gether with their lambs The next pen
contained the product of the next twenty
four hours. and 50 ON. As the lambs in
each pen reached the age of two aays.
they were released with the ewes and al
lowed to go to the grass, which they i'm
mediately commenced eating, and we've
strong and active enough to follow their
mothers all day long. The consequence

lambs demonstrate the value of the eSpel
ment.

sheep, of what is known as 'shigh grade,''

food, but when told that if they did not
go quietly and readily that a detachment
OF soldiers would take them by force, they
chose the former alternate, and now seem
anxious to join their clan ia Canada. Their
camp presented a weird and likewise a
picturesque scene on the Muddy last even
ing. Their tepees pitched in true Indian
style, while over the entrance to several
hung the ensign of the rank of its occu-
pant. The tepee of the chief and his
ileutenants was the best in the outfit, and
the chief, who is an old and hideous look
ing creature, sat conspicuously lust inside
the entrance with a couple of quite comfy
looking squaWs on either side of him. The
medicine lodge was pitched in the centre
and differed in color from the balance,
while over It's entrance was a gorgeous
symbol.
This band Of Indians took conspicuous
part in the late Reil rebellion against the
Canadian government, and fearing punish /
ment hurriedly packed up and came over
to this side of the line. Late last fall they |
pitched their tepaes on Willow creek, a
small tributary of the north fork of Sun
river, and about seventy miles west of
Great Falls. During the early part of the
winter they suffered greatly for the. want
OF food, and the generous residents of that
section supplied them with sufficient to
keep them alive. During the session of
the Legislature, the matter was brought to
their notice and they promptly made an
of $500 for their relief and
appointed commissioners to disimburse it.
Since that time the government has issued
them rations. It will be a relief to the

The thieves were held by the Canadian
